Jack Spicer/Bob Thomas

The poet Jack Spicer as drawn by Bob Thomas, a friend from my Ashland and Southern Oregon College days, 1969-1970.

I rented a room from Bob in 1977 in Lebanon, Oregon as I transitioned from San Franciscan to Portlander.  I think Bob made the drawing that summer and let me snap a photo of it.

I found the photo in my papers recently as I looked for material for my video project.

I'll have to write Bob a nice letter and ask him if I can use it in the project.

Bob might tell me to fuck off.  I hope he doesn't, but he might.
